In case you missed it the goal that eventually won Carlton the game was off the back of one of the more blatant throws all season.

Did not even rate a mention by the commentators.

Fox could not be cheering harder for Carlton. Absolutely pukeworthy. At Gil's request of course.

    I swear i saw twice in the last 2-3 minutes that free kicks were paid against a Carlton player, when the player had the ball in his hands, and he just dropped it to the ground - no 50 paid. In each case out would have brought the GC player within about 15 m of the goals.

    Like us last week. Paid nothing when it could change the result.

    Carlton to finish 5th and get rolled by 8th placed Giants.  Put it in the book.

    I reckon GWS will beat them next week too.

    Everyone talking up the Blues but the other form team the Giants are a serious team.   Will be tough to beat in finals

    100%. Their defense is amazing. They just don’t have the fan support.

    Latest results and form suggest we may be better off finishing fourth than third. I'd fancy meeting the Pies at the MCG rather than a possible trip to a Brisbane side running hot, especially if Daicos and Moore are still out for the first week.

    They just know they’ve got Essendon beaten for pace. They run away from the stoppage.

    Yeah pointed out on Twitter too

    Bombers have been lame ducks for a while now.  Scraped over the line against two of the worst sides in VFL/AFL history.  Their form is putrid.  Collingwood would need another 6 of their best dozen out to lose to these guys next week. Hard to judge the Giants when they are playing witches hats, but I do hope they belt Carlton next week.

  • Quote

    At least we can be confident the pies will beat the bombers. All we have to do is beat the third bottom side.

    Edited by Roost it far

    Who remembers the top 4 bombers??! 8 wins 4 losses

    easy draw all year.  aside from north and WC they have won 1 game since round 12

    Suck on it.  hard

    I hate carlton. The only good finish to the year for them is to win next week and finish 5th which will be 10 wins in a row then lose the elim by a point. That would provide me with a great laugh.

    Faark Carlton, can’t stand them.

    The only good thing this weekend is Essendon adding to the days without a finals win.

    Our loss to Essendon this year is the only one that is truly inexcusable IMO. We played like absolute garbage. I’m still mad about it!

    I agree.  Carlton's form has dropped

    Giants will likely be 9th desperate to play finals and Blues with not much to play for assuming we beat the Hawks

    Giants, Lions, Pies, Dees, Blues... Everyone is trying to pick the flag winner 5 weeks out.

    No one has a clue who will win it, and anyone who thinks they do is underestimating the evenness of the competition.

    was our biggest loss of the year by far, too

    Next year it will be 20 YEARS since the bombers won a final

    This is really cheering me up

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
